For writing a diary, Zhi Xi think, do not need to write too many lofty and ambitious things, do not need words how beautiful, just need simple to put their own day experience, and their mood down. In fact, keeping a diary is more about giving your life a sense of ritual, proving that the day has not gone by in vain, and also making yourself understand how you spend your 24 hours in a day, so as to make a systematic review.
You don’t need to write too much. Doing anything is about perseverance, rather than adding a lot of burden to yourself. There are already so many things every day, so you don’t need to add another burden to yourself. For a period of time, Zhixi’s diary wrote thousands to tens of thousands of words every day. He felt that everything should be recorded in every detail. Of course, the benefits of this can be imagined. We ourselves are very aware of anything that happened on this day. The course of things, current thoughts, moods, feelings, etc., but now recalling, Zhixi feels that this method may only be suitable for beginners, because he didn't know what to write, so he wrote the big and small things together.
Later Zhixi tried a new way to write a diary, that is, to adopt the electronic diary method. At the beginning, he wrote a long time. In fact, he was very resistant to writing such a long time, but he felt that if he didn't write such a long time, it seemed as if he was sorry for himself? Therefore, it becomes a daily burden and burden invisibly. Later, Zhixi felt that he was thinking about things too complicated. In fact, the original intention of the diary was to let us record the things and moods of the day, so wouldn't it be better to keep everything simple? Even if it is only a few words in the future, I can recall the current situation, Zhixi thought, this should be the original meaning of the diary. Later, I tried different methods, such as writing classical Chinese and writing poetry, but I still felt that I was thinking about things too complicated. I returned to the original meaning of a diary, 200-300 words a day, as the end of the day, giving myself a little room for thinking. I don’t need to explain so clearly, it’s really enough. Maybe I look back at my diary in the future. The shorter the one, the more room for imagination. The most important thing is to reflect on my own gains and pasts. So Zhixi feels that the function of a diary is That's about it, just be worth it.
Today’s sharing is over. I hope you can persevere in your good habits. Every time you look through the diary, you will have different memories. I hope to cherish these memories with you!
